When impersonating, they use special codes and sophisticated software to manipulate the target's cryptocurrency wallets
How to avoid scams involving hacked social media accounts:
- When approached by your family or friends on social media talking about investment opportunities, be wary.
- Consider contacting the loved one by other means toverify their identity, such as by phone.
- Be careful when anyone or any platform requires advance payments to withdraw funds.
The Neighbourly team has been diving into a big question: should our curiosity take us up into space or down into the ocean?
Itโs wild to think that more people have walked on the Moon than have reached the deepest point of the sea. Why is that?

The exercise will involve the use of an NH90 helicopter and will be taking place near the Trentham Military Camp and along the Ridge Track in Kaitoke Regional Park.
Police are advising the public to please stay well clear and follow the instructions of Search and Rescue personnel who will be on scene, if you happen to see the activities occurring. The helicopter is expected to be flying at a low level for planned winching, which can generate strong down drafts and possibly cause you to be unsteady on your feet or dislodge foliage above you.
Members of the public should not be alarmed; while loud noises can be expected from the area, this is part of a controlled, routine exercise and is not an emergency event.
